Deutsche Grenzpolizei ‘G’ Armelabzeichen

I looked for another thread concerning this as I feel it is better to try and keep like items together for easier reference but couldn’t find one so if anyone has anything similar or connected please add it here and if need be the title could be altered to accommodate diversification.

I don’t usually pick up much cloth insignia as I am more interested in the badges and awards that are added to the uniform according to the service of the man wearing it!

However, I saw this and couldn’t resist it as it is the first one I have seen other than in books and the price was not too scary:shok_yikes:

This was worn by the DGP on the left jacket sleeve of the black service dress uniform in the period circa 1951 - 53.

Referred to in relevant literature as the "Typical ‘G’ arm patch" it does seem to have significant status as a recognition feature if not quite an icon.

It is of the shade that we have come to know as "GT green" and the embroidered G and border seems not to be white but a very light grey. I don’t think this is due to age or dirt but an intended shade. Does anyone know for certain?

The embroidery and base material seem typical of the period.

All comment and opinion is as usual most welcome.

SS Wehrpass

Hello everyone,

I’m after some opinions on this Wehrpass which I have had for a few years now. I got it from a dealer who I’m not 100% sure about. I’ve read on other forums etc that pencil entries, particularly late war ones are encountered and are ok. Would it be possible to give me a little bit of information on the units his was assigned to on page 12 (where the pencil entry is)

Any opinions on authenticity etc are more then welcome,

Kind regards,

Will

Interesting canteen…

Good day Gentlemen,
I’m not sure if ‘interesting’ is too strong a word for a canteen, but this is one from my ‘too many canteens’ collection (as most collectors of Japanese militaria have)…

This one has an improvised cloth cover fitted; the front panel of tan cotton cloth, the rear of quite a bold green - now very sun-bleached, but with the original colour clearly visible under the web harness.

A cloth label to the front of the harness bears the owner’s details, again very faded and difficult to read and photograph, but I am hoping those with the necessary skills can help me with their translation…
The unusual (though not impossible) use of the western characters ‘MG’, of course, lead one to think of an MG Company, but I know enough not to jump to conclusions…
Not the prettiest example, but I love its character.

Many thanks for your very kind assistance.
Bob
